I'm not averse to the idea of a higher level of energy - though I'd be loathe to label it as a sentient being
but the whole religion thing can piss off. And anyone who claims to speak for some all-powerful, infallible ideal of god can piss right off along with it.

Frankly, I think a quote I read the other day sums it up:

"Religious beliefs are like willies. It's fine if you have one, enjoy it in private and share it with someone who asks. But don't get it out in public, and don't try to shove it down my throat."

Alt: for the same reason that fools fall in love. Drugs and alcohol. And horniness.

I am of the same opinion about the 'energy' thing possibly being out there.
But I reserve my right to go on about the saints, because they belong to me, and not to religion, they are my lucky charms.

I quite like all the saints.
My grandma used to have a couple of statues dotted about the place.

I now have two St Judes.
Nana recently gave me one of hers.

I just have the one 'energy' thing
but it generally answers all my questions, so as long as I remember to be grateful, I carry on.

I swing between the 'thing', my dead grandma and St Jude.
And St Anthony if I lose soemthing. And St Rita if I want Everton to win.
Oh sod it, I'm a religious nut!

The best thing to come out of religion is "Treat others how you want to be treated"
Sadly this is not an acceptable defense against rape charges.

No, the best thing to come out of religion is two days off at Christmas and Easter.

That's also good
I'm Agnostic, I don't know if any higher being exists or not, but I don't let the possibility of one affect my life. If I die and find myself stood in front of a God who demands to know why I didn't pray to him, I'll call him a cunt and flip him the bird.
